Response to the poems “Big Yellow Taxi” and “Field Below”.
The mood and tone seems different when I listened to the music to “Big Yellow Taxi” because the music was happy it was more upbeat then sad. When in the poem without the music it seems really sad but with the music it seems happy. The authors purpose for writing this is to be sad but with the music it isn't sad because it is upbeat the meaning of it is to be sad but the lyrics are but the music isn't. There is a lot of differences between the tone and mood when you listen to the music and read the poem like if you listen to the music the tone and mood doesn't seem sad but if you read the poem the tone and mood do seem sad.
For “Field Below” with the music it still seems sad like the poem it follows along with the tone in the poem and the mood which is depressing and sad. There is no difference between the poem and the music for the poem “Field Below”. The authors meaning of this poem is to be sad as well as the other poem and it is as well as the music, the lyrics and the music are very much alike there isn't much difference between them. When you read the poem and listen to the music the tone and mood aren't that different they both are sad and depressing.

Parody
This relates to the novel “Stormbreaker” by Anthony Horowitz because the the voice of the poem is Alex Rider who is the main character of Stormbreaker. The audience is Harod Sayle who is the bad guy in the story. The mood is humerous or sarcastic and the tone is like earnest or sincere(which is almost the same thing).
I have destroyed
The computer
That you have made
And which
You were going to use
To destroy the world
Forgive me
I had to do it
To save the world
I have destroyed
The computer
That you have made
And which
You were going to use
To destroy the world
Forgive me
I had to do it
To save the world

Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant
Authors Note: I am writing this essay on Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bean Bryant is his name and basketball is his game, he is unstoppable with his dazzling moves to the basket and simply perfect shot sent him flying to the top. Kobe is the best basketball player of this century.
Coming from Lower Merion High School in Philadelphia Kobe quickly became on all NBA scouts watch list with bringing a skill to the game that people haven’t seen since Michael Jordan. As a freshman in high school he had made the varsity team and even though the team wasn’t the best he was the best, during his junior year he averaged 31.1 points, 10.4 rebounds and 5.2 assists and was named Pennsylvania Player of the Year. But his senior year was most impressive year. Bryant led the Aces to their first state championship in 53 years. During the run, he averaged 30.8 points, 12 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 4.0 steals, and 3.8 blocked shots in leading the Aces to a 31–3 record.
In the long career of Kobe’s he has done some amazing things, he has more awards than many people, winning three MVP’s 6 offensive players of the year and many more. He is fifth all time in total points with 29,374 points he was the fastest player to reach 28,000 points.
He has also contributed his wide range of skills overseas on the USA Olympic team paring up with all the stars of the NBA contributing a lot while the team winning three gold medals. Kobe made the game winning jump shot in the semi finals to beat China to continue on and win the gold.
Kobe has talent like no other he is the best player in the past century. Winning countless medals/awards while breaking several records so far in his career but he still has many more years in the NBA.

Authors note: I wrote this piece to describe Samuel; the main character in the book “Woods Runner”.
In the book Woods Runner there is a boy named Samuel who lives in the middle of the woods in the year 1776. Samuel is a thirteen years old, but he is the bravest thirteen year old ever he has to go and find his parents that have been captured by the British and Indians. With only a musket, a knife, and a determination to find his parents he sets off to find his parents, even if he can find them there is no telling that he can be able to overtake the British.
Samuel plays a big role in his family he has a lot of responsibilities for a thirteen year old boy he has to go hunting for the food that he and his mom and dad eat every day. His parents think differently and they think that they don’t have to do work. Also he has to cook the food and make sure everyone in the family is ok and the house doesn’t fall apart.
In the book Samuel is the main character and has to take up an incredible task to find his parents that have been taken by the British. Also he is accompanied by a nine year old girl that is scared because he rescued her after her parents were killed he also has to fend for the both of them by hunting for food, making the fire, and cooking the food that he kills.
